The Lemming Like leftrickle media have been awakened by the previously noted Wall Street Journal report on the gracious and generous action of Christian Lopez and, starting with (the not leftrickle) Fox News, they belatedly have been swarming to report the story that they previously had missed.
The New York Yankees organization responded to Mr. Lopez's unselfishness by giving him a number of baseball fan goodies even though he never asked for any reciprocity.
Obama's IRS grinches immediately pounced, announcing that Mr. Lopez would have to pay taxes on the free tickets and memorabilia that he received as gifts from the Yankees. Guess he actually is lucky that they didn't demand taxes on the quarter million or more dollars on which he turned his back when he chose, instead of selling it, to give to Derek Jeter the home run ball with which Jeter recorded his 3,000th hit.
